My future job

[This post was in drafts, but I decided to post it as it is – April 2008]

Recently I had been talking a few times about my future professional plans. Not those in 1-2 year frame, but what I’d like to do in 5 years. There are many uncertaities there, but one things is clear: I’d like to work in Russia. Sometimes I’m very convinced that I’ll find a job to do things I believe in, but at other moments I’m not so sure. At the end, spending 2,5 years abroad makes your views about home less accurate.

Please, note, that I’m not looking for a job now (I’m on a mission 😉 , I just want it to be written down, so in a few years I see how idealistic or how right I was. And those recruiters who may find this post googling me after my job applications, would know the truth even if I say that I’m ready for a compomise :)))

I’ve got multiple lives, in Russia and the Netherlands, as a practitioner, as a scientist, as a mother, as an educator, as a gardener… I write about things that call for it, but somehow it always ends up being about learning, boundary crossing and networked individuals.
